Plate casters are one of the most reliable and versatile caster types used in industrial, commercial, and institutional settings. At CasterCity.com, our plate casters feature a flat metal mounting plate with pre-drilled holes that allow for secure attachment to a wide range of equipment and furniture. Our extensive selection of plate casters includes a variety of wheel materials, load capacities, and sizes to meet your exact requirements. From light-duty plate casters for office furniture to heavy duty industrial plate casters built for demanding environments, our casters are designed to deliver quality and performance. Whether you’re outfitting carts, machinery, or mobile workstations, our plate casters provide the exact support and smooth mobility your operation needs. We try and give you all the information you need but if you cannot find something that will work, call us at 800-501-3808 and our expert staff will help you with your caster purchase.
Stem Casters are a type of caster wheel that mounts to equipment using a stem rather than a mounting plate and makes them ideal for applications with limited mounting space available. They come in various stem types including threaded, grip ring, expanding rubber, and metal (square/round). Each stem module type is designed to fit different tubing or frame structures and allow for smooth mobility. Stem Casters are most commonly used on carts, furniture, and medical equipment. We offer stem casters with load capacities as small as 250 lbs and as strong as 1,500 lbs, with many pedal and foot brake options available.
We have a stem caster for any need and if you cannot find the right caster, please contact us directly (Call: 800-501-3808 / Email: sales@castercity.com) and we can help you find the perfect stem and caster for your application.
We offer a wide range of caster wheels designed for various use applications, including light-duty furniture, industrial machinery, and medical equipment and more to suit your unique or different mobility needs.
Total locking brakes are a popular choice when safety and stability. We offer brakes on both stem and plate casters. These brakes are designed to lock both the wheel and the swivel at the same time, so once they’re engaged, the caster won’t roll, pivot, or move.
Total locks are widely used in a variety of settings such as warehouses, medical facilities, food service environments, and even heavy duty industrial settings. They’re the perfect caster for mobile equipment that needs to be rolled into place and then stay firmly in position carts, racks, prep tables, or mobile workstations.
If you’re not sure what kind of brake or caster setup works best for your home or business needs, our Caster City sales team is here to help. With decades of experience, we’ll guide you to the right solution for your application and make sure you get exactly what you need for the job.
Stainless steel casters, offered in both plate and stem mounting styles, are built for use in wet, corrosive, or high-temperature environments where durability and cleanliness are critical. These casters are available in both 304 and 316 stainless steel—the former offering strong corrosion resistance for general industrial and food service use, and the latter providing superior protection against harsh chemicals and saltwater, making it ideal for marine and pharmaceutical applications. Designed to handle temperatures up to 450°F when paired with high-temp wheels and raceway seals, these casters perform reliably in extreme heat such as in autoclaves or commercial ovens.
Caster City’s stainless steel casters are built with longevity and performance in mind. Each unit includes a grease fitting in the swivel bearing for easy maintenance, protective seals, and a dust cover to guard internal components from contaminants. Whether you choose 304 for its broad utility or 316 for its maximum corrosion resistance, these casters ensure smooth, low-maintenance mobility in the most demanding conditions.
These industrial pneumatic casters feature air filled pneumatic wheels. These industrial casters are designed for low speed manually moved applications only. Air filled pneumatic wheels provide a cushioned ride, shock absorption and quiet operation. Pneumatic casters are ideally suited for moving fragile or delicate cargo where caster overall height is not critical. Casters with pneumatic wheels are usually the best choice for use outdoors over rough surfaces ( i.e. gravel ) or on grass. The wide footprint on 8″ or larger pneumatic wheels provides stability on gravel and does not sink into lawns.
Pneumatic casters and pneumatic wheels are also popular for indoor use in places such as hospitals, scientific and electronic laboratories, hotels, department stores and TV or movie studios.
Pneumatic wheels with black tires do not mark the floor as long as the wheel is allowed to roll. Changing directions without allowing a swivel caster to turn gradually around, or dragging a black rubber wheel sideways, can mark some floors.
Caster City offers a wide range of office and furniture casters designed for smooth, quiet movement across carpet, tile, and hardwood floors. If you’re upgrading desk chairs, file cabinets, mobile workstations, or anything else your office needs our casters provide durability, ease of movement, and a professional finish that complements any office setup.
To assist you, our customers in locating the ideal caster (stem or plate) for your particular business need, our comprehensive catalog has been carefully arranged. We provide a broad range of solutions to satisfy the needs of the manufacturing, healthcare, retail, and service sectors.
We offer a wide range of products for the industrial sector, including light-duty and low-profile plate casters for machinery and equipment.

Model 9 Plate Rigid Caster is the matching plate caster for the Model 9 Plate Swivel. When manually moving machinery supported by four swivel casters it can be difficult to control the direction you are pulling or pushing. Rigid casters help in controlling equipment being moved in straight line travel. Equipment with both rigid casters can not move sideways. Rigids are usually installed at the opposite end of the push handle and contain 2 legs perpendicular to the mounting plate. Leg thickness is 1/4”. The axle diameter is 1/2” long and is designed to use wheels with a hub width of 2 7/16”. This caster is constructed from stamped steel. Rigid Casters can carry more weight than swivels because they do not have an offset. Other mounting plate sizes and wheel bearing types are available on request.
The Plate Caster Model 9 with a 6” x 2” moldon rubber wheel is a heavy-duty industrial caster engineered for manually moved dumpsters and waste bins in demanding environments. Constructed with a cold-forged steel frame, zinc plating, a 5/8” welded kingpin, 1/4” thick welded legs, and a 1/2” axle with lock nut, each caster supports up to 600 lbs, making a set of four capable of handling 2,400 lbs on smooth surfaces like concrete or asphalt. The moldon rubber wheel ensures a quiet, shock-absorbing ride, protects floors, and rolls over small debris, ideal for commercial kitchens, restaurants, warehouses, hospitals, and municipal facilities. For wet or corrosive settings like food processing or coastal areas, the 304 stainless steel version (SS-9) is NSF/ROHS compliant, offering rust resistance and hygiene with stainless bearing and brake options for enhanced durability.
Designed for versatility, the Model 9 offers swivel and rigid configurations for maneuverability or straight-line stability, with a 4” x 4-1/2” mounting plate for secure installation. Brake options include Top Lock, Total Locking, and Stainless Steel Universal Face Contact brakes, while swivel locks ensure controlled travel. The moldon rubber wheel, available with roller, ball, or stainless precision bearings, resists chemicals and minimizes vibration, extending dumpster life and reducing noise. Perfect for waste management in retail, manufacturing, recycling centers, and marine environments, the Model 9 delivers reliable performance. Stainless steel models excel in washdowns and corrosive conditions, ensuring long-lasting functionality. Available at www.castercity.com or by calling 800-501-3808, with a typical 2-day lead time.
